Ingredients
(links below are the gluten free & celiac safe products I used in this recipe)
- 1 pound 90% lean ground bison, divided
- kosher salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
For Assembly
- 4 gluten free hamburger buns, toasted
- optional condiments: mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup
- optional toppings: sliced red onion, sliced tomato, sliced avocado, butter lettuce
Instructions
Step 1
Divide ground bison into 4 equal portions and shape into 1/2 inch thick patties. Season generously with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Place a large skillet over medium heat. Add butter and olive oil. Once butter is melted, add the patties and cook 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until the desired temperature is reached.
Step 3
During the last few minutes of cooking, add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty; cover and cook for about 2 minutes while the cheese melts.
Step 4
While the pasties rest, lightly toast the buns in the oven or toaster. Once toasted, add your desired condiments and toppings; mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, sliced red onion, sliced tomato, sliced avocado, and butterhead lettuce. Serve immediately.
